Contents page photographs.

This is a photograph I shot for my contents page. It relates to an article named 'Jenny: hot new chick on the scene'.

I got her to pose like this so she looks a bit like she doesn't really care and she's fluffing up her hair! Rock chicks generally are known not to care and just be a little wild so I got my friend to step out of the comfort zone and pose like this!



I got her to wear colours which were not all girly and extremely feminine because her image is not supposed to be aimed at young 12 year old girls!



I like how her scarf looks like a tie, especially in the magazine because I cropped it slightly to fit into a circle shape. Girls in ties are often rock musicians e.g. Avril Lavigne.
I made sure there wasn't much in the background to detract
attention from her.



Below is the other photograph I have chosen to use for my contents page. Because the image is quite small I cropped him from the original photograph which shows most of his body and a lot of scenery too. Below you see how I decided to edit it so it fades into black and white and then crop it to include some colour and some black and white. I shot this photograph because I really liked the setting and horizon line behind him. Although it's a pretty setting, it doesn't detract attention from him which I think is very important. Again he does not have a large smile or silly pose because it is a rock magazine and I want it to look like it has an element of class to it.
